Chisora v Ustinov July 11th Manchester

[Primo Carnera]

The best part of the interview - for as long as I listened - was Fury speaking about Joshua-Johnson - "Johnson was probably paid a few extra dollars to take a dive, unless Joshua hits 5-X harder than all us other heavyweights then something fishy went on there."

Which would suggest he/team Fury couldn't put a dent in Johnson when sparring and were shocked that Joshua whooped him with such ease.

Dont forget Fury has sparred with Joshua so he knows what he punches like.

Much like he knows what Price punches like. Two of the supposed biggest punchers in the world and neither dropped Fury who has a supposed glass jaw.

In Tyson's own words - "Joshua beat me up in sparring." And this was when Joshua was an amateur kid with just 20 fights under his belt. He's a serious bad man now.

bet he regrets saying that now

Doubt that very much. When has Fury ever taken himself or anything seriously

I have read an account of what happened and it was messy. Lots of tying up. Dont let Tysons demeanour or even body shape fool you ges a serious fighter. If he was so shit and his chin was so bad wouldnt it have been an inexperienced 17 year old Fury who hit the deck in their amateur fight and not Price?

Also, Wlad has invited Wilder, Joshua, Whyte, Parker and probably some other young heavies for sparring but when Tyson took himself to Steward in Detroit, Steward invited him to a camp and despite Tyson asking Wlad to spar Wlad refused!

Fury has been matched very carefully , Johnson , Chisora , have both been beaten comfortably by others and quicker than fury could beat them.
Fury gets his shot next , so we will see how he does against Wlad.

shame Haye shit himself

Don't get me wrong, I'm not sticking up for Haye cos he's turning out to be a bit of a needy , attention seeking sap, but I don't think there's any doubt he had a genuine injury, after all , he's never fought since and despite all the horse shit, is unlikely to fight again.
By the same line of thinking, did Fury shit himself when he was supposed to fight Pulev?
I'm not bringing the Ustinov fight into it , because I believe his reasoning for pulling out.
For what it's worth (and it's absolutely nothing now), I reckon Haye would've absolutely wiped the floor with Fury. But hey, we'll never know I suppose.
I don't say this out of malice, because as a bloke I like Fury and I think he's a funny guy, but I just don't think he's top level. Time will tell and I kinda hope he proves me wrong.
